Druid-Shaman Hybrid Spriggan Totem Build Guide

Bernard became one with nature and calls forth hordes of totems to inflict rapid amounts of critical strikes; Overpowering his enemies with shred and thorns.

This is a hybrid Druid-Shaman solo companion totem build. We rely on PrefixIncreased Cast Speed to pour out masses of damage using a simple skill rotation to give us shred and amplifying the damage with Entangling Roots. We also rely on our idols for amplifying our spell damage. These idols give us a MASSIVE boost in DPS Grand Heorot Idol.

Upon transformation into the Spriggan Form, Bernard will get +300 Armor and a 50% increased to spell damage. The planner is already designed to show you the values when IN form.

Our damage from our primary attack of Spirit Thorns individually is not that high. However, we shoot them at a tremendous rate of pace, with our crit chance so high, our multipliers in the 400's% and almost a dozen totems laying down critical strikes that shred, this is more than enough to comfortably clear all enemies in the area without too much hassle.

We put our totems out in front, and our vines will cover our rear and agro enemies who chase us.

The Summon Thorn Totem will generally always pull agro, and since these totem are also Summon Healing Totem, they will also heal themselves. These totems will also be applying shred which allow for bigger enemies to come down relatively quickly.

We utilize Valetide 1/3, Spiritwhisperer 3/3 and Cycle of Life 3/3 to proc vale spirits. Since resummoning totems happens very quickly in our build, we can almost instantly have the Valetide 1/3 power ready to automatically throw our level of Entangling Roots. These Entangling Roots give our totems and companion 10 physical base damage and 40 spell base damage (Wild Weapons 2/2, Blooming Magic 5/5) This also shreds 5 physical resistance with Shredding Vines 5/5. This is also our means of keep our rage topped up with Poisonous Seeds 3/5 and Rampant Growth 1/1. This will leave seeds that detonate and create vines that generate rage with Tears of the Forest.

We also utilize the Silvafrond to also generate vines as well as use it as our movement skill when we directly cast Summon Vines while in form.

This build feels very safe, between our armor and healing from totems and Eterra's Blessing, while is automatically casted when you use Thorn Shield. This automates the build fairly seamlessly, allowing for minimal APS and a simple skill rotation.

As always, my builds never require LP to function, but the build can be improved if found.
